Item 8.01. Other Events.

     This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed by Clearwire Corporation (the “Company”) to update certain portions of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, filed on March 26, 2009 (the “2008 Form 10-K”), to reflect the retrospective application upon adoption, effective January 1, 2009, of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS No. 160”).

     SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for noncontrolling interests (i.e., minority interests) in a subsidiary, including changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary, and requires, among other things, that noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries be classified as stockholders’ equity. Prior period information presented in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K has been reclassified, where required.

     The following Items of the 2008 Form 10-K are being adjusted retrospectively to reflect the adoption of the accounting pronouncement described above (which Items as adjusted are included in Exhibit 99.1 hereto and hereby incorporated by reference herein):

Item 6 — Selected Financial Data

Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

     No Items of the 2008 Form 10-K other than those identified above are being updated by this filing. Information in the 2008 Form 10-K is generally stated as of December 31, 2008 and this filing does not reflect any subsequent information or events other than the adoption of the accounting pronouncement described above. Without limitation of the foregoing, this filing does not purport to update the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the 2008 Form 10-K for any information, uncertainties, transactions, risks, events or trends occurring, or known to management. More current information is contained in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2009 (the “Form 10-Q”) and its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the 2008 Form 10-K, the Form 10-Q and the Company’s other filings. The Form 10-Q and other filings contain important information regarding events, developments and updates to certain expectations of the Company that have occurred subsequent to the filing of the 2008 Form 10-K.
